“The Immigrants (Expulsion from Assam) Act, 1950, was enacted to provide for the expulsion of certain immigrants from Assam whose presence is deemed detrimental to the interests of the general public of India or any Scheduled Tribe in Assam. The Act empowers the Central Government to direct such persons or class of persons, who are ordinarily residents outside India and have entered Assam, to remove themselves from India or Assam within a specified time and by a route designated by the government. The Central Government may delegate this power to officers subordinate to it or officers subordinate to the governments of Assam, Meghalaya, or Nagaland. The Act also authorizes the use of necessary force to give effect to these orders. Penalties include imprisonment up to three years and fines for harboring persons who fail to comply with expulsion orders. The Act excludes refugees displaced due to civil disturbances and provides protections for persons acting under the law.” অভিবাসীদের (আসাম থেকে নির্বাসনের) আইন ১৯৫০​
